HC Deb 16 December 1980 vol 996 cc82-3W
Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what was the number of unemployed men who have attended each of the re-establishment centres so far this year; and how many, in each case, subsequently found employment.

Mrs. Chalker

The following table shows the number of men who were admitted to each re-establishment centre between 1 January and 2 October this year and the number who, during the same period, went directly into employment upon completion of their course. Information about the number of men who have found employment some time after completing a re-establishment course, based on a sample of cases, is compiled twice yearly; figures for men admitted to centres during the first half of 1980 will be available shortly and I shall send them to the hon. Member.
